I'm proud to say I didn't faint, but I did scream when I saw them. The others looked at me like I was crazy, but when they saw we were no longer in the plane, their eyes widened. I opened my mouth to tell them in Spanish where we were and what not to do, but Alejandro beat me to it.

"Don't touch me or I'll fuck your shit up."

"Alejandro, what are you doing?" I whispered desperately. "Are you trying to get us all killed?"

"It's a dream so they can't hurt us," he said calmly. "And if it's not, which is impossible, they now know not to mess with me."

"Oh my gosh, they're so adorable!" Lucero said, looking over to the dwarves.

"Please you have to listen to me," I said. "This is either a dream, which I really hope it is, or we really are in Middle Earth. It looks too realistic to be a dream so we just have to assume it is real. Do not provoke them because they can really kill us so just let me talk since I've read the books, saw the movies and have read many fan fictions in which this happens."

"I think this really is a dream though," said Paige.

"You understood what I said?" I asked astonished. "Since when do you understand Spanish?"

"I don't know," she said. From the tone of her voice I could tell she was confused. So was I. "I just understood what you said."

"Okay, definitely a dream," I said as I knew she couldn't speak Spanish. I pinched myself, desperately hoping this was a dream. But a second later, we were still there.

"Maybe it's one of us that's dreaming," said Cynthia. "We should all pinch ourselves and just wait to see who wakes up."

We pinched ourselves but we were still where we were. That's when Gandalf spoke:

"Well, children, you are definitely not dreaming. I'm Gandalf the Grey. Now, what might your names be?"

"Oh, um, I'm Daniela," I managed to get out. I was amazed that I hadn't yet passed out.

"Hello, I'm Paige," Paige said with a small wave. She somehow managed to keep calm.

"I'm Alejandro."

"Hey, I'm Lucero."

"Hi, I'm Cynthia."

"Well, those certainly are strange names," Gandalf said with a smile. "I'm guessing that you are not of Middle Earth, and that you've no idea where you are."

I looked over at Paige because we both had seen the movies and had an idea of where we were. The others had absolutely no idea of where they were so we took it upon ourselves to explain.

"Actually Paige and I have a pretty good idea of where we are," I said. I had no idea how they would react so I took a deep breath and prepared to explain. "We are at the moment at the Council of Elrond."

If I could I'd describe the look on everyone's faces.

"I wish we had a camera," I whispered to Paige, "the look on their faces is priceless."

We both laughed quietly and I was ready to explain further when Elrond stood. He was about to speak but Paige was faster.

"Look at his eyebrows!" she said with a huge grin.

I looked at her like she was insane. "Paige!" I whispered, hoping she really would be able to understand, "What are you doing? You can't say that to him. We must behave if we want to survive."

"You smiled too," she said, "and it's more a compliment than an insult."

"Wait, what's the Council of Elrond?" asked Alejandro.

"It a council in which they are trying to figure out what to do with the One Ring," explained Paige.

Before anyone else could say anything, Elrond spoke:

"Welcome, children, to Rivendell. I am Lord Elrond. How you came by the knowledge of this Council I do not know, but you are most welcomed. I will speak with you all later on this subject. Now, as I was saying before our new guest joined us. Frodo, bring forth the Ring."

At this I gasped, luckily no one heard. Frodo rose from his seat and walked over to a pedestal. We were seating in front of Elrond so we had a good view of the Ring. I admit I was horrified by it because I knew what it could do. But by some magic or something, I felt nothing towards it except I felt cold in its presence. I looked over at the others and whispered if they felt anything, but they told me they just felt cold. The members of the council were murmuring amongst themselves, but then a man, which I recognized as Boromir, stood and spoke.

"It is a gift...a gift to the foes of Mordor!" he said. "Why not use this Ring? Long has my father, the Steward of Gondor, held the forces of Mordor at bay...by the blood of our people are your lands kept safe? Give Gondor the weapon of the enemy...let us use it against him!"

"That sounds legit," said Alejandro.

"Don't encourage him,"I whispered.

"You cannot wield it. None of us can. The one ring answers to Sauron alone...it has no other master," Aragorn said from his seat.

Boromir turned to Aragorn and said, "And what would a Ranger know of this matter?"

Then Legolas stood and, as we all know, defended Aragorn. And so the Council continued as we all know it did (with us staying quiet and let the story go on). Frodo announced he would take the Ring and the Fellowship was formed. Once they were together, Elrond said, "Nine companions, so be it. You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring."

Clearly this did not go well with Gandalf, for a second later he declared, "Actually, it's fourteen companions. The children shall be joining us in this quest."
